New York, NY - FOX Sports GO, the app that provides live streaming video of FOX Sports content, will offer a live stream of Super Bowl XLVIII to all users on Sunday, February 2 as part of a special preview showcasing the app and its content.
The special preview will allow all users to access content on FOX Sports GO from 12:00 AM ET on Sunday, February 2, until 3:00 AM ET on Monday, February 3. Outside of this window, subscribers of participating TV providers can enjoy access to live games and events in FOX Sports GO year-round.
FOX Sports GO will feature two separate live streams of Super Bowl XLVIII: the customary FOX Sports telecast in English and the FOX Deportes telecast in Spanish. FOX Deportes is making NFL history with Super Bowl XLVIII, marking the first time the Super Bowl is televised and streamed in Spanish in the U.S.
"We're giving all fans the ability to watch the biggest game of the year wherever they go," said Eric Shanks, President and COO, FOX Sports. "We're also making the mobile experience more user friendly by streaming the game through FOX Sports GO and adding the FOX Deportes stream for our Spanish-speaking audience."
The live stream of Super Bowl XLVIII will be available on iPads in the FOX Sports GO app and on desktops at www.FOXSportsGO.com.
Due to league restrictions, NFL games are not available in FOX Sports GO on phones.
Additional Super Bowl-related programming from FOX Sports will also be streamed live, including the FOX SUPER BOWL SUNDAY PREGAME SHOW, as well as content from FOX Sports 1 and FOX Sports 2. (Programming highlights below.)
The event will be FOX Sports' first live stream of the Super Bowl and the first time ever the Super Bowl will be streamed through an app, offering faster navigation and an interface design optimized for devices. In previous years, the Super Bowl live stream was only offered through web browsers.
